Currently Accepting New Patients! An ideal client voluntarily comes to therapy seeking assistance resolving the struggles they experience which are interfering with their daily functioning. The client is willing to engage in the therapeutic work with their time and energy in the effort to move toward healing.

Seeking help is not an easy thing to do, yet it is one of the best decisions you can make for yourself and those around you. You deserve to be seen and heard and when you decide to take the first step to seek counseling, I will listen with no judgment, and provide empathy and honest feedback.

I provide therapy to individuals, families, and groups for those who may be facing depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, domestic violence, and grief. If you are ready to make a change, I am ready to listen and provide the skills necessary to help you make the change.

"Be caring, curious, and then compassionate." I practice these three steps just as I teach them. I studied psychology, counseling, and family therapy for 12 years to become the best therapist I could be and to know how best to help someone work through depression or anxiety. I especially enjoy working with couples to help create their healthiest relationship. My speciality is working with parents and their children even if they are grown.

My clients would describe me as supportive, honest, and ready to work. I believe therapy is something everyone can truly benefit from at some point in their lives. I take a tailored approach suited for individual clients, parents, and families and their individual issues. I am very goal driven and like to get things done in session. I like to work with clients to establish a solid foundation so they are equipped to handle difficult circumstances life throws their way. Its extremely important to help clients feel like they can independently walk through life while effectively coping with curve balls.

I work with individual adults, couples, families, and children (ages 3 - 10) and together we curate helpful ways to cope with everyday life and relationships. I encourage clients to focus on their inner strengths and make choices that bring them closer to their goals. I believe our thoughts, behaviors, values, and beliefs begin in our early years within our families of origin. These years, along with the life experiences and challenges we encounter along the way serve to shape us. Uncovering how these thoughts and behaviors impact our daily life is an important step toward healing, change, and freedom.

Hi, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and have worked for over 7 years with people who suffer from diverse, life-challenging mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, anger management, low self-esteem, suicidal ideation, sexual or physical abuse, social phobia, drug/alcohol abuse, parenting, relationship issues, etc.

I am passionate about working with individuals across the lifespan. Everyone is unique, and I approach therapy in a way that fosters that individuality to create growth. My style is strength-focused, warm, attentive, and thoughtful. I believe in therapy that emphasizes trust, safety, acceptance, understanding, and empathy. I strive to create a safe space and develop a collaborative and integrative approach to help you identify patterns, work on interpersonal struggles, facilitate self-reflection, and foster self-awareness.

In practice I use a pragmatic, results-oriented approach and am not tethered to one behavioral health modality. Rather, recognizing each patient has unique needs, I draw from many therapeutic approaches that best fit each patient. In my practice, I can quickly assess which techniques will work best to meet each client's individual needs to show patients that they can have the right tools to reach their optimal comfort level in their careers, families, and relationships. The goal is bridging the gap and finding the most productive pathway between where clients are and where they want to be.

My clinical background includes a robust, private practice with in depth expertise in working with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, anger management, relationships and attachment disorders. In addition, I am also a SAP for the DOT, a CISM credentialed provider, with a focus on individual and mass community trauma, and a Certified Cognitive Behavioral Specialist. Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, I held significant corporate positions at a Fortune 500 Company (IBM) and partnered with one of America's Largest Private Companies (New Balance Athletic Shoe, Inc).

With a Bachelor’s in Psychology and a Master’s in Counseling, I believe in the work of this field. Whether this includes group therapy, addiction psychoeducation, or pre-marital counseling, it is my honor to walk with you as you seek to recover or grow. Life can be heavy and emotions difficult to regulate. Throughout your journey, I recognize that it can be life-changing to add a non-judgmental support with tools to your team as you work to reach your goals by using your own strengths. Just as hurt and betrayal often take place in relationship, so do healing and change. In a session with me, you matter and you are safe.

My primary specialty is romantic conflict. Many persons I counsel are either "stuck" or at an impasse. They just cannot seem to resolve their conflict. They often see their issues worsen despite efforts. I address the root causes, matters that often go unaddressed. These root issues are often why couples continue to fight. These matters are so strong that they can take the best of romances and turn them into near hatred and disgust. My secondary specialty is emotional management, including with children. I primarily address regret, fear, anger, and anxiety, helping you understand and manage emotions that hold you back.

The ideal client courageously seeks support to navigate challenges and pursue holistic well-being. The ideal client may be facing issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship difficulties, and they recognize the importance of addressing these challenges in a safe and supportive environment. Their needs revolve around finding effective coping strategies, building resilience, and cultivating self-awareness to navigate life's ups and downs more easily. Goals may include achieving mental and emotional balance, improving self-esteem, fostering healthier relationships, and discovering a sense of purpose and success.
